Now out of all the wrestlers Mattel has made over the years who would be their worst seller?
I'm not talking about a certain figure from a pacific series that has had poor sales I'm talking about a wrestler who none of his/her figures are popular at all.
From my experience over the years I have found that these guys usually clog shelves.
Alberto Del Rio
Sheamus
Daniel Bryan
Rey Mysterio
Mark Henry
John Cena (Though Bill insists that he sells well)
Chris Jericho
Sting
Randy Orton
Maybe I have missed a few but who in general would be the worst seller?

None of the above I'm sure, they make hundreds of thousands of all of those guys...
Who clogs shelves more would be a better question

It's not John Cena. I'm willing to bet he sells twice as much as everyone else combined.
I don't think it's Sting either. I'd add CM Punk, but I don't think there's any one decisive shelf warmer.

John Cena is the number 1 seller for Mattel-WWE. Rey Mysterio was in their top 5 when he was still with WWE. |

Mickie James at one point my TRU had over 50 of her and they sat there for over a year. The same can be said about both the Elite Finlay and the e18 Brodus Clay figures there were 15+ of each of a couple different WalMarts forever.

Probably Elite 1 Heff Jardy since they couldn't make any profit off of it  |

He sold well during the jakks days but his Mattel figures clogged for years. |

I always found it strange because the E18 figure came out when he was pretty popular. |

The Grear Khali couldn't sell for crap...
But as far as figures go, probably Sheamus or Del Rio. Maybe Brodus Clay

Sting in general has surprised me. ATM my local Toys R Us has pegs of his USA DM, his green basic and their are still lots of Elite 39 and basic 55. Maybe the lack of a modern Sting is the problem. |

Del Rio, I feel like WWE made Mattel fast track that figure because they expected him to be bigger upon his return than he was. I imagine once E43 hits in full, it will clog shelves |

Sting sells fairly well in my area, I've only seen his GAB DM a few times while I was out. Not nearly as much as Taker or Warrior. I also saw his E39 less frequently than anyone else in that set. Have yet to see his basic, but I haven't been checking for it either. |

I think it is area specific. My local K-Mart has had he same John Cena and Daniel Bryan basics on the shelves for months.

There's no way you put Orton and Cena on a worst sellers list
No way
